I am boycotting Walmart too, but for a different reason. Our boycott is for Walmart sitting on allt hat ammo that we need for our guns as citizens with 2nd Amendment rights that override CHER and her ultra Liberal agenda. However between the gun control NUTS like Cher and good law abiding hard working, constitutional American gun owners {who BTW pay the bills the Government run up} Walmart is being boycotted by both sides.
As if Walmart did'nt already have enough problems with people spending their Walmart money on HIGH GASOLINE PRICES. and OBama holding our Tax Return Refund checks back to make it look like "SEQUESTRATION "is causing it...Walmart is gonna have VERY LOW 1st, 2nd ,3rd and 4th qyarter Sales numbers to report.
I will only buy that which i absolutely cannot find anywhere else...but that is very little. I would RATHER PAY MORE for something than buy it from WALMART!
Just keep sitting on the ammo we need and WALMART"S BOTTOM LINE WILL PAY THE PRICE!!!
Cher's boycott is perfectly timed to help our cause for more ammunition. Thanks CHER!!!

I wonder how often Cher shopped in Walmart and even Macy's. Singers get paid to sing, not speak. I wish more of them would keep quiet.

I'm sure walmart is worried about cher. Matter of fact, come to think of it-------I'm not sure anyone is worried about cher or chaz--------Sonny Bono was the man behind sonny and cher and what a job he did.

Donald Trump is an egotistical, wanna be billionaire who should take a look in the mirror before making comments at the gorgeous and hot Cher who is probably old enough to be his mother. He wishes he could look half as good and have half the career that Cher has had. As far as guns, get rid of them, unless you are in the military, or a police officer or some authoritarian of the law, you do not need to be having a gun in your living space. It only makes you feel like a bigger person, and if your claim is my neighborhood is unsafe, move or get a security system that only costs roughly thirty dollars a month, there are millions upon millions of us who dont bear weapons in the home, and we are all and have been doing just fine.
